ctrl + r
gang
Holy Crap. I have gotten into the arrow up mode. Then I went to History.
But, but, but ctrl + r. Holy crap.
Thank you kind sir or madam.
If you enjoy that, then let me introduce you you fzf - a fuzzy finder that has support for replacing ctrl + r in shells with fuzzy matching. Among other uses.

Man I over use it at work - even when sitting in front of a pwsh prompt
You can also install https://github.com/dvorka/hstr to supercharge your ctrl+r
Is there a MacOS versión of this? Asking for a friend.
It's the same, ctrl
+ r
. It is a bash/shell thing so works on any os that uses bash or similar shells. Note, it is not the command key, but ctrl, unlike a lot of other shortcuts on macos.
Fish gang arise (no need for ctrl+r, just press up)
Ctrl R > start typing
You're welcome to have your life changed
What the actual.... Thanks
Finally the ls
command!
Up up up up up up up up up oh wait down
you allllways overshoot

Woah. Quality of meme in this site amazes me.
It's more or less like on reddit, but less users.
*fewer
It's more or fewer like on Reddit, but with less users.
ah there's my password...
- vim ~/.inputrc
- Paste the following:
"\e[A": history-search-backward "\e[B": history-search-forward
Thank me later
Man, I've been on unix systems since, oh, 1994, but I've never messed with my .inputrc ... may need to take the dive....
Y'all know about ctrl-r to search history, right? I went for so many years without even thinking to look for something better than up-arrow, so I have to mention it.
Wait until they learn that you can ctrl+u
when you mistyped your password in sudo
instead of spamming backspace...
cat .bash_history | grep keyword
But yeah pretty much.
Why not just history | grep keyword
then? Works in any directory.
Guilty. Even knowing better ways laziness wins. Skyrim console too.
I usually do ctrl+r but with zsh I can type the beginning of the command and press up and it will search that way too.
fish automatically searches as you type, just start typing and press -> when you find the command you need.
esc + k
for me!
(vi for life)
no I don't want to write the single word command out again I'd rather go up the history with more keypresses
history | grep term
Fish finally broke me of this habit, and now it's one of the first things I install on any system
history | grep {some part of command}
Much more useful for going further back, even without grep.
As some one who SSH's from a phone to run Docker containers and will be moving the container volumes to a different location, I thank you for this lovely command.
